I would be concerned that in your picture, the wire from your horn relay to your horn button is red. On my car and on the Pelican wiring diagram, the wire from the horn button, H, to the horn relay, J4, is shown as brown with a white stripe . What color is the wire at pin 85 on your horn relay, should be brown with white stripe? If it's the same red as at your wheel, check it's continuity to the horn button. If that wire is correct, then check continuity on the black wire with yellow stripe that goes from the pin 87 on the horn relay to power the horn. The brown wire on the horn itself is ground.
